I don't want to be the guy who isn't excited about Mario Kart...but I'm not excited. Especially if it's coming out so soon, which means less to add new things I would assume. Part of it is that I desperately need to play more than 1 racing series again, part of it is that they're really gonna have to blow me away to get me to buy another Mario Kart. I really hope this game goes all out and does something really surprising and new.

I think Mario Kart is better off as a portable game anyways, that's just me though.

I disagree (though my favorite is the DS game) because it is so rare that my friends happened to have DS/3DS with them versus just playing Double Dash or Wii with controllers. Like even Mario Kart 7 which I've criticized a ton was a blast the literally 2 times I played it in local multiplayer.

Yeah, I don't think I would play a portable Mario Kart much if I had it. Really the only draw for me is mutliplayer.

Not really. Mario Kart 7 was good but by the books . This game will have an even shorter iteration time than 7 which needed retro to help with the track work. So either this game will be half baked out of the oven or this may be Retro's next game,

Plus I want F-zero more too give Mario room to breathe.

WAT!

Hey check out my awesome new youtube channel shingi70 where I update weekly on the latest gaming and comic news form a level headed perspective.

I hope it's another Double Dash style game. Character unique powerups, hold two at once, that was cool. I know it'll never happen, but I'd like a mode where I can see what powerup I'm about to get before I drive into it rather than it being decided by slot machine.

I'm sorta feeling the same way. I mean, I'm sure once I see it in action with the fancy HD graphics and whatever new features it comes with I'll be super excited, but until then it's just like, "Oh, another Mario Kart... Whoopie."

Avian fact of the week: The Moa, an extinct relative of ostrichs and emus that inhabited New Zealand, was the tallest bird that ever lived at 12 ft tall (3.6 m). It was also the only known bird to have no wing structure.

I agree 100%.

I'm looking forward to it. I can always spin for a good round of Mario Kart.

I personally don't think this game was rushed - if you remember back to the January Nintendo Direct for Wii U, they officially announced the Mario Kart. They said that it would be playable at E3, meaning it must be nearing completion and gave the impression that it had been in development for some time. Same goes for the upcoming 3D Mario.

All in all, I'm looking forward to it. Interested to see how the GamePad will be used.
